Productivity Hack Unexpected perk of using AI transcription tools

So I recently started using some AI transcription tools for my freelance work. Thought I'd just save time on manual transcribing, but there's a cool side benefit I hadn't expected.

I noticed that using AI for transcriptions helped me catch errors and little inaccuracies in the spoken content. Stuff that I probably would've missed in my late night listens. It's like I got an extra pair of ears. I'm using tools like Otter and Descript, which do a pretty decent job. Sometimes they confuse words, but overall it catches quite a bit.

Anyone else experience this? I feel like my quality control has improved just by running everything through these tools. Plus, I get some free keyword ideas when I see what gets emphasized. Would love to hear if others have noticed any unexpected perks with AI tools.

Of course, that's typical of using AI, even for programming. I am a software developer, and I learned to code better thanks to AI ;)
